How does the skin respond to damage? Acute skin injury requires a healthy microenvironment for proper healing; however, the presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS) prevents this recovery. Melanin, ...

Thymosin Beta 4 (Tβ4) is a multifunctional peptide that plays a critical role in tissue repair, wound healing and regeneration. Acting primarily as a G-actin binding protein, Tβ4 modulates cellular ...

The phenomenon of regeneration was discovered over 200 years ago in the freshwater polyp Hydra. Until now, however, it was largely unclear how the orderly regeneration of lost tissues or organs is ...

A team of researchers from China has made a significant breakthrough in biomedical engineering by developing a novel adhesive that promises to revolutionize wound management and tissue repair. The ...

– Data presented at 2023 Annual Meeting of the Wound Healing Society showed statistically significant results characterizing the in vivo bioactivity of Ceapro’s oat-derived bioactive products on wound ...

Significant metformin levels in the wound exudate of diabetic patients who take that drug along with injectable insulin point to a new possibility for wound healing, a study in ACS Pharmacology & ...

Difficult-to-treat, chronic wounds in preclinical models healed with normal scar-free skin after treatment with an acellular product. Derived from platelets, the purified exosomal product, known as ...

A scientist in Wisconsin has invented a bandage that uses an electrical field to speed up the time needed for a wound to heal. It could one day lead to treatments for baldness and obesity. This next ...
